2nd Cavalry Division

When an ARMY solider goes through basic how is it determined which regiment they go to?
Being a civilian I have no clue. How do people end up in the 1st 0r 2nd Division? Could ask for 101st Airborne or 82nd Airborne? Or that Air cavalry? How does all this work out who goes where?
Whenever a soldier leaves the active army it creates an open billet in the TOE (Table of Organization and Equipment) which recorded by the Department of Army which asks the TRADOC (Training and Doctrine Command) how many individual of that MOS (Military Occupational Series) are available to fill that open billet, whichever billets go vacant first are the first ones to be filled.
Airborne units are slightly different because you must volunteer to go airborne and qualify to jump status prior to being assigned to an open billet in one of the Airborne Divisions or Brigades. Just like being a Ranger or Special Forces, you must be qualified to fill the open billet prior to being assigned to it.
Prior to classifying you to your MOS assignment they have already evaluated your ability to perform in several career fields mostly based on your GT score. Score low and you become an infantryman, slightly higher you might be assigned to armor or artillery, higher still and you could be in combat aviation and so on. You still need to successfully complete your AIT (Advanced Individual Training) before you are actually assigned to an open billet. Given two or three years you are either advancing up into an open billet for a junior NCO or out of the Army and some other new kid is posted to the billet you have vacanted….
